The River Coquet rises on the remote upper slopes of Brownhart Law, close to the Roman military complex of Chew Green, and for the first 10 miles of a long and wayward journey to the North Sea this magnificent river rubs shoulders with some of the finest hills in Northumberland. Here, seemingly light years from the stresses and strains of 21st century life, the "Hills of Upper Coquetdale" offer walking of the highest quality.

Written by the author of two previous books of walks, "The Cheviot Hills" and "Walks from Wooler", this latest book contains eight totally new self-guided walks with detailed, easy to follow route descriptions and a rucksack full of fascinating information about the area. This is a unique collection of walks in the most tranquil corner of England.
